Smartphones on Prime Day: High-end devices at a low-end price?
Prime Day 2024 has begun and Amazon is slashing prices significantly. Smartphones are among the top sellers at the event and we check which offers are really worthwhile so that you can snap them up without hesitation. Aside from smartphones, you will find many other interesting special offers in our main article on Prime Day.
Google Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro price drops
Google is also offering generous discounts on its latest smartphones, the 8th generation Pixel devices, for Prime Day.
- Google Pixel 8 for 542.87 euros instead of 799 Euro RRP (-32%) – Savings: 256.83 euros
- Google Pixel 8 Pro for 725 euros instead of 1099 euros (-34%) – Savings: 374 euros
The Pixel 8 Pro, Google's flagship, impressed in the CHIP test with its AI support, excellent technology and high-quality workmanship. The bright OLED display and the powerful Tensor G3 chip are particularly impressive. The triple camera with 5x optical zoom delivers realistic images. The 6.7-inch device is waterproof and guarantees updates for 7 years. One disadvantage is the battery, which lasts less than 12 hours at 60 Hz. The high-end smartphone costs 1,100 euros at launch and offers first-class performance.
Samsung on Prime Day: Galaxy devices with discount
Just in time for Prime Day, the manufacturer Samsung is lowering prices and offering many popular models in the Galaxy series with big discounts: With the A55, for example, customers get an excellent device in the mid-range smartphone range. The Galaxy S23 is last year's flagship and the Galaxy S24 Plus joins the manufacturer's current top models:
The Galaxy S24 Plus impressed in the CHIP editorial team's test and is currently in 7th place. With a 6.7-inch QHD display (120 Hz) and long battery life, the Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus impresses. The new processor clearly outperforms its predecessor. The triple camera delivers high-quality photos and 8K videos, but shows weaknesses in night shots. “Galaxy AI” offers practical software functions, and the device receives Android updates for seven years. With a starting price of 1,149 euros, Samsung continues to position itself in the premium segment. Overall, the S24 Plus impresses in almost all test categories.
Other exciting smartphones on Prime Day:
The up-and-coming manufacturer “Nothing” is seizing the opportunity and is already offering the first discounts on its elegant smartphones. Founded by former OnePlus co-founder Carl Pei, the company Nothing focuses on developing design-oriented Android devices at competitive prices.
- CMF Phone for 199.99 euros instead of 239,00 Euro RRP (-16%) – Savings: 39.01 euros
- Nothing Phone (2a) for 299,00 euros instead of 329,00 Euro (-9%) – Savings: 20 euros
- Nothing Phone (2) for 568.31 euros instead of 799,00 RRP (-29%) – Savings: 230.69 euros
In a strategic move, Nothing recently launched the sub-brand “CMF by Nothing”, which focuses on the budget segment. The first product, the modular CMF Phone, is available on Amazon for 199 euros – a remarkable price-performance point in the current market environment.
